With the arrival of good weather, SOLAS in Portarlington has experienced a surge in business and we’re excited to announce even more improvements for our customers. From the end of April, our outdoor Food Court will be open daily, serving a full menu filled with delicious options. Plus, our new, fun, secure, and FREE playground will be opening before the end of May, providing a natural, safe environment for children to play while parents relax nearby. The playground will be accessible from the Food Courtyard, feature soft playing surfaces, an old turf locomotive, a sensory room, and secure bicycle parking for weekend cyclists.

SOLAS – PLANTS

Our plant of the week is Azalea, a spring-flowering shrub available in hundreds of colours and sizes. Some Azaleas are evergreen, while others are deciduous. They prefer rich, acidic soil and are perfect companions for Heathers and Rhododendrons. Choose a full to partially sunny site in your garden.
